Documentation

Screenshots as a service, built for AI agents

Point your agent at a URL and get back a hosted image, with no local headless browser to run. Grabbit handles cookie and consent banners, JavaScript-heavy and full-page captures, and many sites that block a local browser.


Endpoint	`https://mcp.grabbit.live` (Streamable HTTP)
Auth	OAuth 2.1 (claude.ai connectors work out of the box) or a Bearer API key
Registry name	`live.grabbit/screenshots`
Setup guides	https://grabbit.live/agents

Tools

Tool	What it does
`grab`	Screenshot any public URL and get a hosted image back (inline image + remaining credits)
`get_grab`	Fetch a previous capture by id
`list_grabs`	Browse your recent captures
`get_usage`	Credits, plan, and 30-day usage
`get_pricing`	Pricing plus an honest, dated comparison against ScreenshotOne, Urlbox, Browserless, and others

Why a hosted screenshot tool

Most agents can already drive a headless browser. It works on simple pages and quietly fails on the ones that matter: cookie and consent walls, bot detection, login and paywall gates, and heavy client-rendered pages. Grabbit runs the capture on hosted infrastructure, so the shot comes back clean and the agent needs no browser of its own.

Honest bound: no service captures literally every site. A few hard targets behind aggressive IP blocking still resist. Private and internal addresses (including localhost) are blocked by SSRF protection.

Quick start

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http grabbit https://mcp.grabbit.live

Then run /mcp and authenticate in the browser (OAuth, no key to paste). Guide: https://grabbit.live/agents/claude-code

Cursor

~/.cursor/mcp.json (commit a project-scoped .cursor/mcp.json to share with your team):

{ "mcpServers": { "grabbit": { "url": "https://mcp.grabbit.live" } } }

Guide: https://grabbit.live/agents/cursor

OpenAI Codex

~/.codex/config.toml:

[mcp_servers.grabbit]
url = "https://mcp.grabbit.live"
bearer_token_env_var = "GRABBIT_API_KEY"

Guide: https://grabbit.live/agents/codex

OpenClaw
